Note 13 — Chapter XI · BRASHEAR CITY. On Active Service—Action of June Twenty-third—Captured—Paroled and Returned to Algiers.
Reading edition
Major Hunter does not mention this fact in his official report. His men did say so, however, and it is the enlisted men who state facts seldom found in official reports. All of the Confederate documents relating to Brashear City, Bayou Bœuff and La-Fourche are an eulogy of their own prowess.
